They're called galarian-moltres/ zapdos/ articuno due to superficial similarities. No clue if they're actually related or not. Peony just says that they're close enough.

They're not actually Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres, they're just called that because of their similarities. It's unknown if they're actually regional variants or totally new Pokemon. I kinda like that their origins are unclear.

Legendary Pokemon are still a species outside of very specific exceptions, you just happen to be interacting with individuals involved with history or mythology.

>but there are so much of them, that we actually see variations.
>much
*MANY. We use "many" for countable objects. Please learn how to talk like a high school educated adult.
>everything else
Part of being legendary just means they're extremely rare. That can mean there are only like 6 of them scattered throughout the whole world. And you have to remember, the world is a massive place.

They can breed, we just don't know how to induce it in captivity. It's "Undiscovered" and "Gender Unknown", that indicates we don't know not that it's nonapplicable.

As far as abide canon goes, we have already seen that multiples of the birds exist.
They are just ridiculously rare and powerful.
Very few pokemon are truly unique, such as mewtwo and groudon.
Most like Celebi, Deoxys, and so forth have multiples.

I thought the point of regional varients was to adapt to new climates and such. What evolutionary advantage does any of these provide in Crown Tundra over their base form?

Except that's not what's stated at all. They ARE Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. It's just that up until recently, people thought they were exactly the same as the ones in other regions.

>Legendary Pokémon bearing strong resemblances to Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres have been spotted in the Crown Tundra. These Pokémon seem to bear Ice-type, Electric-type, and Fire-type characteristics, respectively, and so were previously thought to be the same as the Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres seen in other regions. But recently, data gathered from reported sightings and other sources about the Pokémon have bolstered the theory that they are, in fact, distinct variants.

>Once every several decades, this migratory Pokémon appears in the Crown Tundra. For a long time, it was thought to be the same Legendary Pokémon as the Articuno previously discovered in other regions.

They only appear once every several decades, so no one had a chance to study them close enough to figure out that they were regional variants instead of the exact same Pokemon.
